 Make a file called veritas.reg with the contents shown below, 
between START and END blocks.

_START_
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\NetBackup\CurrentVersion\Config]
"OTM_Current"="ALL"
"OTM_Cache_Size_Init"=dword:00000000
"OTM_Cache_Size_Max"=dword:00000000
_END_

And run it on your NT/2k boxes

Here's what they mean:

OTM_Cache_Size_Max      0  (auto adjusting)
OTM_Cache_Size_Init     0 (auto adjusting)
OTM_Current = "NO" (Default), "YES," or "ALL."
YES = Good for "ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES" backups that do not require synchronization.
NO = Good for "ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES" backups that require synchronization.
ALL = Use for Multiple Data Stream backups.
